Episode description

As the Morin household goes full Vision Pro, the gang reveals what everyone is missing about the device. Plus, the earthquake through digital media and (maybe) the end of AI everything.

Takeaways

• The Apple Vision Pro offers a truly immersive and transformative experience, changing the way users think about computing.
• The Vision Pro represents a new computing paradigm and has the potential to expand into various devices and accessories.
• Developers will play a crucial role in exploring and innovating new use cases for the Vision Pro.
• The joint streaming service for sports by major networks reflects the significance of sports in the media industry and the growing demand for streaming sports content. Streaming services are disrupting the traditional cable industry, but the challenge lies in the fragmentation of content and the lack of a comprehensive aggregator.
• The demand for a comprehensive sports package remains high, as sports fans struggle to find a streaming service that offers all the games they want to watch.
• Esports has not yet reached its full potential in the United States, as it lacks the community engagement and water cooler conversations that traditional sports have.
• The venture capital industry is constantly evolving, but the key to success remains investing in the few companies that truly matter.
• AI is no longer a standalone category in venture capital, but rather a tool that is integrated into various industries and sectors.
